FAO Conference 2011 - Registration and other information

FAOs/RAOs/RAS'/PAS' (active and former) and Students interested in the political-military interface,

Please sign up for the 2011 FAO Conference here.

We have a truly 'amazing' line up of leadership from the active duty services, State Department and Department of Defense, and academia who have volunteered to share their time and experiences with us on April 7th & 8th. In addition to academic forums and keynote speeches, we have panels dedicated to service orientated questions and regional themes salient to TODAY's pol-mil specialists.

Please join us in welcoming:

Deputy Secretary of Defense for Africa, Ambassador Vicki Huddleston

Deputy Secretary of Defense for Plans, Dr. Janine Davidson

Director, Strategic Counter-Terrorism Communications, Ambassador Richard LeBaron

Former Ambassador to Georgia, Bulgaria, and Azerbaijan, Ambassador Richard Miles

Director for International Engagement, OPNAV 52, RADM Jeffrey Lemmons, USN

Former Director for Plans, Strategy & Programs, AFRICOM, MajGen H. "Buz" Altshuler, USA (Ret) Air Force Culture & Language Center, Brig Gen Gunther Mueller, USAF (Ret)

And many, many others!

Spouses are encouraged to attend ANY and ALL events they feel might interest them, but we have one panel, hosted by Dr Casey Lucius and Mrs Sharon Miles (Wife of Ambassador Richard Miles, former Ambassador to Georgia, Bulgaria, and Azerbaijan), completely dedicated to them Friday 8th April (1320-1430.)  We also hope your spouse will join you at the Embassy Style Reception, a training (and social) event designed to allow you to experience the 'work after-work' many of us will be required to do in our follow on tours in an environment where faux-pas are not likely to strain relationships.

For a full list of panels, speeches, and events please refer to the attached agenda.

If you still have questions, please feel free to contact me, LCDR Jason Neal, at (janeal@nps.edu.)

We look forward to seeing you at the conference!

Very Respectfully,

LCDR Jason Neal
